A modern web version of Nuvio TV powered by the Stremio addon ecosystem.
Shared web app • TV packages • Desktop installer • Playback-focused experience

⚠️ Status: BETA — experimental and may be unstable.

About

NuvioTV Web is the shared web app source for the Nuvio TV experience. It runs in a browser and also powers TV builds for Samsung Tizen and LG webOS.

It acts as a client-side interface that can integrate with the Stremio addon ecosystem for content discovery and source resolution through user-installed extensions.

This repository is the shared web codebase. It produces the TV release packages consumed by TizenBrew, webOS Homebrew, and the desktop Nuvio WebTV Installer.

Install

Nuvio WebTV Installer

• Download the latest Windows or macOS Nuvio WebTV Installer build from the latest NuvioMedia/NuvioWeb release
• The installer can connect to both Samsung Tizen and LG webOS TVs and install the latest .wgt and .ipk automatically

macOS note: Current public macOS installer builds are unsigned. If macOS says the app is damaged or refuses to open it, move the app to Applications and run:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Nuvio WebTV Installer.app"
codesign --force --deep --sign - "/Applications/Nuvio WebTV Installer.app"
open "/Applications/Nuvio WebTV Installer.app"

This workaround should only be temporary. Once signed macOS builds are included in a future release, this manual step should no longer be needed.

TizenBrew

• Open TizenBrew on your Samsung TV
• Add the GitHub module NuvioMedia/NuvioTVTizen
• Launch Nuvio TV from your installed modules

webOS Homebrew

• For Homebrew Channel repository install: open Homebrew Channel, go to Settings, choose Add repository, enter https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NuvioMedia/NuvioWebOS/main/webosbrew/apps.json, return to the apps list, and install Nuvio TV from there

Platform Repositories

• TizenBrew wrapper: NuvioMedia/NuvioTVTizen
• webOS metadata repo: NuvioMedia/NuvioWebOS
• Desktop installer repo: NuvioMedia/NuvioWebTVInstaller

Origins / Credits

This project is part of the Nuvio TV ecosystem and has two important roots:

• tapframe/NuvioTV
  The original Android TV project that inspired the TV-first product direction.
  https://github.com/tapframe/NuvioTV

• WhiteGiso/NuvioTV-WebOS
  The community webOS codebase that served as the starting inspiration/base for this shared web version.
  https://github.com/WhiteGiso/NuvioTV-WebOS

This repository expands on that foundation into a shared web app that can be reused across platforms.

For Developers

Repository Structure

• js/ app logic, platform adapters, player code
• css/ shared styling
• assets/ icons, branding, bundled libs
• scripts/ build and sync tooling for self-packaged wrappers
• dist/ generated build output

Run the Web App Locally

npm install
npm run build
python3 -m http.server 8080 -d dist

Open http://127.0.0.1:8080.

Building Wrapper Projects Yourself

The public TizenBrew wrapper still points at the hosted web app. webOS release IPKs are now self-packaged from this repo, and the sync tooling remains available for developers who want custom packaged wrappers.

webOS self-packaged wrapper

Create a separate webOS project folder with at least:

YourWebOSProject/
  appinfo.json
  index.html
  main.js

Then sync the built app into that wrapper:

npm run build
npm run sync:webos -- /absolute/path/to/YourWebOSProject

Package/install it with your normal webOS CLI workflow.

For a local IPK directly from this repo:

npm run package:webos
npm run install:webos -- -d lg
npm run inspect:webos -- -d lg
npm run logs:webos -- -d lg

Tizen self-packaged wrapper

Create a separate Tizen project folder with at least:

YourTizenProject/
  config.xml
  index.html
  main.js

Then sync the built app into that wrapper:

npm run build
npm run sync:tizen -- /absolute/path/to/YourTizenProject

Package/install it with Tizen Studio or your normal Samsung TV workflow.

For a local WGT directly from this repo without opening Tizen Studio:

npm run package:tizen

That creates NuvioTV_VERSION.wgt in the repo root. The package uses:

• Tizen package id: NuvioTV
• Tizen application id: NuvioTV.NuvioTV
• bundled runtime env: your local nuvio.env.js copied by npm run build

Override these when needed:

TIZEN_PACKAGE_ID=NuvioTV TIZEN_APP_ID=NuvioTV.NuvioTV npm run package:tizen

To package a different env file explicitly:

npm run package:tizen -- --env-source /absolute/path/to/nuvio.env.js

Sync Commands

npm run sync:webos -- /absolute/path/to/project
npm run sync:tizen -- /absolute/path/to/project

Compatibility form:

npm run sync -- --webos --path /absolute/path/to/project
npm run sync -- --tizen --path /absolute/path/to/project

Hosted vs Packaged

• The shared app can be hosted as a normal website
• The maintained Tizen wrapper still launches the hosted app
• webOS release IPKs are built locally from this repo and published to NuvioMedia/NuvioWeb releases
• desktop installer builds can also be attached to NuvioMedia/NuvioWeb releases from NuvioMedia/NuvioWebTVInstaller
• The sync commands are for developers who want fully packaged custom wrappers
